THE PREDICTION
Former world number seven Danielle Collins finished runner-up to Ash Barty at the Australian Open at the start of last season but she has struggled to maintain that level practically ever since. The 29-year-old takes a three-match losing streak into Wimbledon but her last convincing campaign came in Melbourne this January, where she beat Karolina Muchova in a tight third-set tiebreak before taking eventual runner-up Elena Rybakina to three in defeat. The American remains a tough draw outside of the seeds as a player with the grit required to bed in and play herself into form this fortnight but 26-year-old Julia Grabher comes in to her Wimbledon debut at a career-high WTA world ranking of 54th after some strong work on her favoured clay over the last few months. Collins comes in cold on grass but she is too stubborn to go down without a fight at a major whilst Grabher is yet to impress away from clay. Back Collins to win outright here for caution’s sake even though she should be coming through in two.
